COMMERCIAL LEASE




12020630-RSY-B



     In consideration of the covenants herein contained, Cummings Properties, LLC (“LESSOR”), does
hereby lease to BioTrove, Inc. (a DE corp.), 620 Memorial Drive, Cambridge, MA 02139
(“LESSEE”), the following described premises (“the leased premises”): approximately 19,359
square feet (including 0.3% common area) at 10-J and 10-K Gill Street, Woburn, MA 01801, TO
HAVE AND HOLD the leased premises for a term of five (5) years commencing at noon on
April 1, 2003 and ending at noon on March 30, 2008 unless sooner terminated as
herein provided, LESSOR and LESSEE now covenant and agree that the following terms and conditions
shall govern this lease during the term hereof and for such further time as LESSEE shall hold the
leased premises or any portion thereof.



     1. RENT. LESSEE shall pay to LESSOR base rent at the rate of five hundred sixty two
thousand nine hundred fifty nine (562,959) U.S. dollars per year, drawn on a U.S. bank, payable
in advance in monthly installments of $46,913.25 on the first day in each calendar month.
The first monthly payment, plus an appropriate fraction of a monthly payment for any portion of a
month at the commencement of the lease term, shall be made *.
All payments shall be made to LESSOR or agent at 200 West Cummings Park, Woburn, Massachusetts
01801, or at such other place as LESSOR shall from time to time in writing designate. If the “Cost
of Living” has increased as shown by the Consumer Price Index (Boston, Massachusetts, all items,
all urban consumers), U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the amount of base rent due during each
calendar year of this lease and any extensions thereof shall be annually adjusted in proportion to
any increase in the Index., All such adjustments shall take place with the rent due on January 1 of
each year during the lease term. The base month from which to determine the amount of each increase
in the Index shall be January 2003 which figure shall be compared with the figure for
November 2003 and each November thereafter to determine the percentage increase (if any) in
the base rent to be paid during the following calendar year. In the event the Consumer Price Index
as presently computed is discontinued as a measure of “Cost of Living” changes, any adjustment
shall then be made on the basis of a comparable index then in general use.



*as provided in Paragraph 0 of the Rider to Lease.



     2. SECURITY DEPOSIT. LESSEE shall pay to LESSOR a security deposit in the amount of one hundred
seventy thousand seven hundred (170,700) U.S. dollars upon the execution of this lease by
LESSEE, which shall be held as security for LESSEE’s performance as herein provided and refunded to
LESSEE without interest at the end of this lease, subject to LESSEE’s satisfactory compliance with
the conditions hereof. LESSEE may not apply the security deposit to any payment due under the
lease. In the event of any default or breach of this lease by LESSEE, however,* LESSOR may elect to
apply the security deposit first to any unamortized improvements completed for LESSEE’S occupancy,
then to offset any outstanding invoice or other payment due to LESSOR, and then to outstanding
rent. If all or any portion of the security deposit is applied to cure a default or breach during
the term of the lease, LESSEE shall restore said deposit forthwith. LESSEE’s failure to remit the
full security deposit or any portion thereof or to restore said deposit when due shall constitute a
substantial lease default. Until such time as LESSEE pays the security deposit and first month’s
rent, LESSOR may declare this lease null and void for failure of consideration.



*following written notice and an opportunity to cure as provided below,



     3. USE OF PREMISES. LESSEE shall use the leased premises only for the purpose of executive and
administrative offices, laboratory space, research and development and light manufacturing



     4. ADDITIONAL RENT. LESSEE shall pay to LESSOR as additional rent a proportionate share (based on
square footage leased by LESSEE as compared with the total leaseable square footage of the building
or buildings of which the leased premises are a part (hereinafter called the building)) of any
increase in the real estate taxes levied against the land and building, whether such increase is
caused by an increase in the
tax rate or the assessment on the property, or a change in the method of determining real estate
taxes. LESSEE shall make payment within * days after receipt of any invoice from LESSOR, and any
additional rent shall be prorated should the lease terminate before the end of any tax year. The
base from which to determine the amount of any increase in taxes shall be the rate and the
assessment in effect as of July 1, 2002.

charges as determined by separate meters serving the leased premises. LESSEE shall also pay
LESSOR a proportionate share of any other fees and charges relating in any way to utility use at
the building.

obtain any licenses and permits necessary for LESSEE’s use and occupancy. LESSEE shall be
responsible for causing the leased premises and any alterations by LESSEE allowed hereunder to be

     7. FIRE, CASUALTY, EMINENT DOMAIN. Should a substantial portion of the leased premises, or of the
property of which they are a part, be substantially damaged by fire or other casualty, or be taken
by eminent domain, LESSOR may elect to terminate this lease. When such fire, casualty, or taking
renders the leased premises substantially unsuitable for their intended use, a proportionate
abatement of rent shall be made, and LESSEE may elect to terminate this lease if: (a) LESSOR fails
to give written notice within * days of its intention to restore the leased premises; or (b)
LESSOR fails to restore the leased premises to a condition substantially suitable for their
intended use within ** days of said fire, casualty or taking. LESSOR reserves all rights for

third person with respect to this lease,* and LESSEE agrees to indemnify LESSOR against any
brokerage claims arising by virtue of this lease. LESSOR warrants and represents to LESSEE that

     20. DEFAULT AND ACCELERATION OF RENT. In the event that, (a) any assignment for the benefit of
creditors, trust mortgage, receivership or other insolvency proceeding shall be made or instituted
with respect to LESSEE or LESSEE’s property: (b) LESSEE shall default in the observance or
performance of any of LESSEE’s* covenants, agreements, or obligations hereunder, and such default
shall not be corrected** Within 10*** days after written notice thereof, or (c) LESSEE vacates the
leased premises,**** then LESSOR shall have the right thereafter, while such default continues and
without demand or further notice, to re-enter and take possession of the leased premises, to
declare the term of this lease ended, and to remove LESSEE’s effects, without being guilty of any
manner of trespass or conversion, and without prejudice to any remedies which might be otherwise
used for arrears of rent or other default or breach of the lease. If LESSEE shall default in the
payment of the security deposit, rent, taxes, or substantial invoice from LESSOR or LESSOR’s agent
for goods and/or services or other sum herein specified, and such default shall continue for 10
days after written notice thereof, and, because both parties agree that nonpayment of said sums
when due is a substantial breach of the lease, and, because the payment of rent in monthly
installments is for the sole benefit and convenience of LESSEE, then, in addition to any other
remedies, the entire balance of rent due hereunder shall become immediately due and payable as
liquidated damages. LESSOR, without being under any obligation to do so and without thereby waiving
any default, may remedy same for the account and at the expense of LESSEE. If LESSOR pays or incurs
any obligations for the payment of money in connection therewith, such sums paid or obligations
incurred, plus interest and costs, shall be paid to LESSOR by LESSEE as additional rent. Any sums
received by LESSOR from or on behalf of LESSEE at any time shall be applied first to any
unamortized improvements completed for LESSEE’s occupancy, then to offset any outstanding invoice
or other payment due to LESSOR, and then to outstanding rent. If any rent or other payment is not
received by LESSOR within five***** days after such payment is due, then LESSEE shall pay LESSOR a
late charge equal to one percent of such overdue payment or $35, whichever is greater. LESSEE shall
also pay LESSOR interest at the rate of 18 percent per annum on any payment from LESSEE to LESSOR
which is past due.

commenced to cure and be diligently proceeding to cure *material ***30

thereof shall be deemed duly served when left at the leased premises, or served by constable, or
sent to the leased premises or to the last address designated by notice in accordance with this
section, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by
recognized courier service with a receipt therefor, addressed to LESSEE. Any notice from LESSEE to
LESSOR relating to the leased premises or to the occupancy thereof shall be deemed duly served when
served by constable, or delivered to LESSOR by certified or registered mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, or by recognized courier service with a receipt therefor, addressed to
LESSOR at 200 West Cummings Park, Woburn, MA 01801 or at LESSOR’s last designated address. No oral
notice or representation shall have any force or effect. Time is of the essence in the service of
any notice.



     22. OCCUPANCY. In the event that LESSEE takes possession of the leased premises prior to the start
of the lease term, LESSEE will perform and observe all of its covenants from the date upon which it
takes possession. LESSEE shall not remove LESSEE’s goods or property from the leased premises other
than in the ordinary and usual course of business, without *having first paid LESSOR all rent which
may become due during the entire term of this lease. LESSOR may require LESSEE to relocate to
another similar facility upon prior written notice to LESSEE and on terms comparable to these
herein. In the event that LESSEE continues to occupy or control all or any part of the leased
premises after the termination of this lease without the written permission of LESSOR, LESSEE shall
be liable to LESSOR for any and all loss, damages or expenses incurred by LESSOR, and all other
terms of this lease shall continue to apply, except that use and occupancy payments shall be due in
full monthly installments at a rate which shall be two times the greater of the monthly rent due
under this lease immediately prior to termination or LESSOR’s then current published rent
for the
leased premises, it being understood that such extended occupancy is a tenancy at sufferance,
solely for the benefit and convenience of LESSEE and is of greater rental value. LESSEE’s
control
or occupancy of all or any part of the leased premises beyond noon** on the
last day of any monthly
rental period shall constitute LESSEE’s occupancy for an entire additional month, and
increased
payment as provided in this section shall be due and payable immediately in advance. LESSOR’s
acceptance of any payments from LESSEE during such extended occupancy
shall not alter LESSEE’s
status as a tenant at sufferance.

applicable, LESSEE’s proportionate share of any costs associated therewith.

way with the use and enjoyment of other portions of the same or neighboring buildings by others by

STANDARD FORM

RIDER TO LEASE




The following additional provisions are incorporated into and made a part of the attached lease:




     A. CONFLICTS. In the event of any conflict between any provision of this Rider to Lease and the
attached lease the provisions of this Rider shall govern.



     [B. THIS
PARAGRAPH DOES NOT APPLY.]



     [C. THIS
PARAGRAPH DOES NOT APPLY.]



     D. REMEDIES. Notwithstanding Section 20 above, in the event the entire balance of rent due under
this lease becomes due and payable as liquidated damages, said amount shall be discounted to its
net present value as of the date of LESSOR’s notice of default, using the published prime rate then
in effect. Furthermore, LESSEE’s covenants under this lease shall be independent of LESSOR’s
covenants, and LESSOR’s failure to perform any of its covenants under this lease, including a
covenant constituting a significant inducement to LESSEE to enter into this lease,* shall not
excuse the payment of rent or any other charges by LESSEE or allow LESSEE to terminate this lease.





	*	 	but excluding a failure to perform that constitutes a constructive eviction,





     E. PARKING. LESSEE shall be entitled to use, in common with others, a proportionate share of the
total number of common area parking spaces provided for the building (based on square footage
leased by LESSEE as compared with the total leasable square footage of the building). The number of
spaces used by LESSEE’s employees, agents and invitees shall not at any time exceed LESSEE’s
proportionate share of the total spaces for the building. For purposes of determining LESSEE’s
compliance with this paragraph at any time, the number of spaces used by LESSEE shall be presumed
to equal the number of persons who are then present at the leased premises.



     F. RECORDING AND SECURITY. Although LESSOR may choose at any time to record activities at the
building with unmonitored remote television cameras, LESSEE acknowledges and agrees that, as
provided in Section 15 above, LESSOR is not thereby or in any other way providing any security
service for LESSEE or its employees, agents, invitees, contractors and representatives, and that
LESSOR has made no representations whatsoever, written or oral, concerning the safety of the leased
premises or the presence, effectiveness or operability of any security devices or security
measures, or the safety or security of LESSEE, its employees, agents, invitees, callers, contractors and representatives, or LESSEE’s
property, against the criminal or wrongful acts of third parties. Additionally, LESSEE accepts full
responsibility for protecting the persons and property of LESSEE and those of its employees,
agents, invitees, callers, contractors and representatives, and (acknowledging that security
devices or measures may fail or be thwarted by criminals, by other third parties or by electrical
or mechanical malfunction), agrees not to rely on any such devices or measures, and to protect
itself, its property, and its employees, agents, invitees, callers, contractors and representatives
as if such devices or measures did not exist.



     [G. THIS
PARAGRAPH DOES NOT APPLY.]




     H. Notwithstanding the commencement date of this lease, the parties acknowledge and agree that 10-K
Gill Street is presently occupied by third parties. Upon full execution of this lease and full
payment of the security deposit, LESSOR will use reasonable efforts to obtain possession of said
premises from the existing tenants in sufficient time so that the modifications to the leased
premises described below may be substantially completed by March 21, 2003. In the event that
LESSOR fails for any reason to obtain, within one week after the date of LESSEE’s execution of this
lease and the mutually agreed upon plan and specifications dated January 14, 2003 attached hereto,
adequate assurances, satisfactory to LESSE in its reasonable discretion, for timely possession of
said premises, LESSOR shall so notify LESSEE in writing, and LESSEE may within five days thereafter
elect to terminate this lease by written notice to LESSOR, in which event the security deposit and
any other amounts paid by LESSEE to LESSOR shall be refunded, this lease shall terminate, and
neither party shall be further obligated hereunder.

RIDER TO LEASE

(Continued)




     I. * Notwithstanding monthly rent as provided in Section l above, LESSEE may deduct
$2,086.50 per month from each monthly rental payment due from April l, 2003 through
March 30, 2005 (only), provided LESSEE is not in default of the lease or in arrears of any
rent or invoice payments. Time is of the essence.



     J. LESSOR, at a cost incorporated in the base rent, shall use all best reasonable efforts to
substantially complete modifications to the leased premises according to the attached plan and
specifications dated January 14, 2003 (“LESSOR’s work”) on or before March 21, 2003.
Notwithstanding the commencement date of this lease, upon substantial completion of LESSOR’s work,
LESSEE may take possession of the leased premises and rent shall commence, and the discount
provided in Paragraph I above shall be prorated for any rent due prior to April 1, 2003.



     K. Either party shall have the option to cancel this lease if LESSOR fails for any reason to
commence LESSOR’s work on or before February 3, 2003, by serving the other party with written
notice to that effect on or before February 7, 2003. All monies paid by LESSEE hereunder shall then
be refunded to LESSEE, this lease shall terminate, and neither party shall be further obligated
hereunder. LESSOR agrees that upon its commencement of LESSOR’s work it shall continue such work
with best efforts. Time is of the essence.



     L. LESSOR’s failure to deliver possession on or before March 21, 2003 shall not affect the
validity of this lease or the obligations of LESSEE under this lease, except, however, the payment
of rent shall not commence until LESSOR’s work is substantially complete (except for punch list
items). Moreover, if LESSOR’s work is not substantially complete by March 21, 2003, LESSEE shall
be entitled to a credit of $750 per day from March 22, 2003 through April 4, 2003, and a credit of
$1,500 per day thereafter until April 28, 2003, which credits shall be applied against future rent
and shall terminate when LESSOR’s work is substantially complete. In the alternative, in the event
LESSOR substantially completes LESSOR’s work prior to March 21, 2003, LESSEE shall pay, in addition
to monthly rent, a rent premium of $750 per day until March 21, 2003. Moreover, in the event
LESSOR is unable to deliver possession on or before April 28, 2003, LESSEE shall have the option to
terminate this lease without penalty by giving LESSOR written notice to that effect on or before
May 1, 2003, whereupon neither party shall have any further obligation to the other and all monies
paid by LESSEE hereunder shall be refunded. This abatement of rent, rent credit and termination of
the lease shall be LESSEE’s sole and exclusive remedies for any failure by LESSOR to deliver
possession as provided herein. In the event LESSEE in any way delays LESSOR in such a way that
LESSOR is actually delayed in delivering possession (which shall include without limitation any
additions and/or changes requested by LESSEE to the scope of LESSOR’s work, any delay in LESSEE
providing information to LESSOR for any permits or plans and any interference by LESSEE or LESSEE’s
contractor with LESSOR’s work), there shall be no abatement of rent or rent credit for the period
of delay, and the above dates for substantial completion, delivery, rent premium and credits and
notice of termination shall be extended by the length of such delay. Time is of the essence.



     M. During LESSOR’S work, LESSEE and its consultant shall be entitled to inspect the leased premises
on a weekly basis, provided LESSEE does not interfere in any way with the progress of LESSOR’s
work. Upon substantial completion, LESSEE and its consultant shall be entitled to inspect LESSOR’s
work together with LESSOR, and the parties shall mutually agree upon a punch list of items to be
completed. LESSOR shall then use reasonable efforts to complete the punch list items, to the
reasonable satisfaction of LESSEE, 30 days after the list is compiled.



     N. LESSOR agrees that LESSOR’s work shall be completed in a good and workerlike manner and in
compliance with applicable laws. LESSOR shall warrant LESSOR’s workmanship and any materials LESSOR
supplies for 90 days after substantial completion and shall assign any manufacturers’ warranties
to LESSEE on a non-exclusive basis. “Substantially complete”, as used in this lease, shall mean the
leased premises are substantially in compliance with the attached plans and specifications, LESSOR
has obtained a temporary or permanent certificate of occupancy for LESSOR’s work, and LESSOR’s work
is complete to such a degree that LESSEE may use and occupy substantially the entire leased
premises for its intended use, in the reasonable judgment of both parties.

RIDER TO LEASE

(Continued)




     P. At any one time during the term of this lease, provided LESSEE is not then in default of this
lease or in arrears of any rent or invoice payments, LESSEE shall have the option to lease larger
similar space of approximately 30,000 to 38,000 square feet. LESSEE shall give LESSOR written
notice of such requirement for larger space, and shall then execute LESSOR’s then current standard
form lease with changes comparable to those herein or amendment to lease for such larger space in
the same or other buildings of LESSOR at LESSOR’s then current published rates for a term
equivalent to the initial term of this lease within one week after LESSOR’s written notice to
LESSEE that said larger space will be available. If LESSOR does not offer such larger similar space
within six months after receipt of written notice from LESSEE, then LESSEE shall have the option
within 30 days thereafter to terminate the unexpired portion of this lease, without penalty, by
serving LESSOR with 30 days written notice to that effect. Cancellation of the lease shall be
LESSEE’s exclusive remedy for any failure by LESSOR to offer such larger similar space or any
breach by LESSOR of the provisions of this paragraph. Time is of the essence.



     Q. LESSEE shall have the right to assign this lease to an entity in which LESSEE owns at least a 50
percent interest, an entity which owns at least a 50 percent interest in LESSEE, an entity which is
under common control with LESSEE, an entity which is formed as a result of a merger or
consolidation involving LESSEE, or an entity which purchases all or substantially all of LESSEE’s
assets, without further consent from LESSOR, provided LESSEE serves LESSOR with prior written
notice to that effect, together with all required certificates of insurance from the assignee. The
provisions of Section 11 shall govern said assignment in all other respects.



     R. * LESSOR represents and warrants that OWNER is the sole and exclusive owner of the leased
premises, holding good and clear record and marketable title thereto, free from encumbrances,
except for encumbrances that will not adversely affect LESSEE’s use and enjoyment of the leased
premises for the purposes permitted hereunder.



     S. LESSEE’s agreement to subordinate this lease to any and all mortgages and/or other instruments
in the nature of a mortgage, now or at any time in the future, is conditional upon the mortgagee’s
agreement that LESSEE’s possession will not be disturbed so long as LESSEE is not in material
default in the payment of rent or other covenants or obligations hereof.



     T. * LESSEE shall reasonably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the leased premises for the term
hereof without hindrance or molestation from LESSOR, provided LESSEE is not in arrears of any rent
or invoice payment and is in full compliance with all terms, conditions and obligations of this
lease.



     U. * LESSEE shall have access to the leased premises seven days per week, 24 hours per day. LESSEE
acknowledges and agrees that LESSOR has no responsibility for providing any security services for
the leased premises, and LESSEE assumes any and all risks in that regard.



     V. * With reference to Section 25 above, no hazardous materials or hazardous wastes shall be used,
processed, stored, or disposed of in any manner or form within the leased premises or any extension
thereof in violation of any applicable local, state, or federal law, rule or regulation. LESSEE
shall be solely responsible for and shall indemnify and hold LESSOR harmless from any and all
liability, damage or personal injury associated with any use, processing, storage, or disposal of
such materials.



     W. Prior to the termination date of this lease, LESSEE, at LESSEE’s sole expense, shall engage an
independent and certified industrial hygienist (“the CIH”) to prepare a decontamination work plan
for the leased premises in accordance with all CIH professional standards and all applicable laws
to address all conditions arising out of LESSEE’s tenancy. LESSEE shall provide a copy of said plan
to LESSOR. LESSEE shall then complete all measures specified in said plan, including cleaning and
testing all surfaces and other building




     X. Prior to delivery of the leased premises, LESSOR shall provide LESSEE with certification by a
CIH that, based on information available to LESSOR and the CIH concerning the operations of the
current occupants of the leased premises, the leased premises are free from any harmful chemical,
biological or other contamination arising out of the current occupants’ tenancy, in accordance with
all applicable CIH professional standards and all applicable laws. Said certification shall
confirm the clean condition of all ductwork, plumbing fixtures, drains, tanks, mechanical systems,
cabinetry, casework, all other surfaces, and the indoor air quality at the leased premises,
excluding any equipment, furniture, or furnishings that LESSEE may purchase from the current
occupants, and shall specify that there are not restrictions on future use and occupation by others
based on information available to LESSOR concerning the current occupants’ use.

(Continued)




components recommended therein. The CIH shall certify that as of the termination date of this
lease, the entire leased premises and any extension thereof used in any way by LESSEE are free from
any harmful chemical, biological or other contamination arising out of LESSEE’s tenancy, in
accordance with all applicable CIH professional standards and all applicable laws. Said
certification shall confirm the clean condition of all ductwork, plumbing fixtures, drains, tanks,
mechanical systems, cabinetry, casework, all other surfaces, and the indoor air quality at the
leased premises, and shall specify that there are no restrictions on future use and occupation by
others, all based on LESSEE’s use. This certification and any required and recommended cleaning
shall be completed prior to the termination of this lease. Time is of the essence.



     Y. LESSEE’s maintenance obligations as provided in Section 10 above specifically include, but are
not limited to, at least usual and customary maintenance and cleaning of all plumbing drains, vents
and grease traps, as well as air vent filters, and all other maintenance necessitated by LESSEE’s
use and operation of the leased premises. In addition, LESSEE acknowledges and agrees that the
plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling systems provided and maintained by LESSOR are intended
and sized only for normal office and industrial use, and any additional maintenance or additional
equipment necessitated by LESSEE’s use and operation of the premises shall be at LESSEE’s sole
expense.



     Z. LESSEE shall notify LESSOR in writing 30 days prior to the expiration of the lease term of
LESSEE’s compliance with its inspection and maintenance obligations as stated above.



     AA. * The preceding two paragraphs regarding LESSEE’s responsibility for maintenance of the
premises are a key consideration of this lease.



     BB. Provided LESSEE is not then in default of this lease or in arrears of any rent or invoice
payment, LESSEE shall have two options to extend this lease, including all terms, conditions,
escalations, etc., each for one additional period of three years (“the first option term” and “the
second option term” respectively or collectively “the option terms”) by serving LESSOR with written
notice of its desire to so extend the lease. The time for serving such written notice shall be not
more than 12 months or less than 6 months prior to the expiration of the then current lease term.
Time is of the essence.



     CC. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1, annual base rent during the option terms shall be
recalculated at LESSOR’s published annual rental rate less two dollars per square foot as of the
commencement of the applicable option term for similar space, but shall in no case be less than the
annual base rent, plus all “Cost of Living” adjustments, that would otherwise be in effect as of
the commencement of the applicable option term. The base month from which to determine the amount
of each “Cost of Living” adjustment during the first option term shall then be changed to January
2008, the “comparison” month shall be changed to November 2008, and the first adjustment during the
first option term shall take place with the rent due on January 1, 2009. The base month from which
to determine the amount of each “Cost of Living” adjustment during the second option term shall be
changed to January 2011, the “comparison” month shall be changed to November 2011, and the first
adjustment during the second option term shall take place with the rent due on January 1, 2012.
Section 1 shall continue to apply in all other respects during the option terms.













 





12020630-RSY-14



RIDER TO LEASE

(Continued)




     DD. In the event LESSOR approves a sublease or an assignment of the lease, LESSEE shall pay LESSOR
on the 10th of each month during the period of the sublease or assignment, 50 percent of any amount
by which the payments due to LESSEE under the sublease or assignment exceed the rent payment due
from LESSEE to LESSOR for that month, less any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by LESSEE in
subleasing or assigning. Such amount shall, however, be calculated on a proportionate basis in the
case of a sublease of only a portion of the leased premises. LESSEE shall not be obligated to make
any such monthly payment to LESSOR for any month in which LESSEE does not receive its payment.



     EE. Except in the case of an emergency and subject to Section 13 above, LESSOR’s access to the
leased premises will be at such times as will not unreasonably interfere with the normal business
operations of LESSEE.



     FF. LESSOR consents to LESSEE’s access to the roof of the building for maintenance of non-building
standard HVAC and mechanical equipment serving the leased premises (only). LESSEE further agrees
that no other work shall be carried on or any other equipment installed on the roof without the
prior written consent of LESSOR, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. LESSEE shall be fully
responsible for, and agrees to indemnify and hold LESSOR harmless from, any and all property damage
and personal injury associated in any way with the activities of LESSEE and LESSEE’s agents,
employees and contractors on the roof and/or the location, installation or maintenance of LESSEE’s
equipment on the roof, except for any location or installation by LESSOR, including, but not
limited to, damage to the watertight integrity of the roof and the roof membrane from whatever
cause.



     GG. In lieu of the $170,700 cash security deposit provided for in Section 2 above, LESSEE may
substitute an Irrevocable Letter of Credit negotiable on sight in the amount of $170,700, provided
said Letter of Credit is issued by a commercial bank acceptable to LESSOR with a letter of credit
paying office in the Boston, Massachusetts area; provides for payment to LESSOR immediately and on
sight upon LESSOR’s delivery to the bank of a statement that the drawing represents amounts due to
LESSOR from LESSEE under this lease or is otherwise permitted under this lease; terminates no
earlier than two months after the termination of the lease; and is otherwise in a form acceptable
to counsel for LESSOR. LESSOR shall serve LESSEE with written notice of its intention to draw on
said Letter of Credit for any non-monetary default by LESSEE. In addition, LESSOR shall be entitled
to draw on said Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds as a cash security deposit in the event
LESSOR feels insecure about the continuing solvency of the issuing bank. Either the Letter of
Credit or the cash security deposit for which it is being substituted shall be delivered to LESSOR
upon LESSEE’s execution of this lease. If the cash security deposit is paid, LESSOR shall then
refund it to LESSEE upon delivery to LESSOR of a Letter of Credit that fully complies with this
paragraph. LESSEE shall pay LESSOR for legal and administrative expenses incurred by LESSOR in
connection with this Letter of Credit.



     HH. * LESSOR agrees to erect signage designating four parking spaces in front of the leased
premises for short term visitor parking. LESSOR shall have no responsibility for enforcing said
parking restriction.



     II. * LESSEE may install and maintain at LESSEE’s sole expense an illuminated exterior sign on the
building in a location to be designated by LESSOR and in compliance with LESSOR’s design and
construction standards and any and all ordinances, bylaws, and state and local building codes. In
the event LESSEE fails to maintain said sign in good working order and condition, LESSOR may elect
to have said sign repaired or removed from the building at LESSEE’s sole expense. In addition,
prior to commencement of installation, LESSEE shall obtain all necessary permits and LESSOR’s
written consent as to size, graphics, construction and the like.



     JJ. * In the event this lease is terminated and LESSEE pays LESSOR accelerated rent in accordance
with the provisions of Section 20 herein, LESSOR shall credit LESSEE for any rents actually
received by LESSOR over the balance of the lease term minus all costs incurred by LESSOR in
re-letting the premises. LESSOR shall use reasonable efforts to re-let the leased premises.
LESSOR’s failure to re-let the leased premises despite LESSOR’s reasonable efforts shall not limit
LESSEE’s liability hereunder.

















 





12020630-RSY-14




RIDER TO LEASE

(Continued)




     KK. To the extent that compensation is unavailable under LESSEE’s business
interruption or other insurance coverage, LESSEE shall receive a proportionate abatement of rent in
the event that the leased premises are rendered substantially unusable for the purposes set forth
in Section 3 for at least 10 business days as a result of LESSOR’s failure to maintain the
structure and fire alarm, electrical, plumbing, HVAC and/or water systems to the extent they are
LESSOR’s responsibility to maintain hereunder. This paragraph shall not apply, however, in the case
of any interruption caused in any way by LESSEE or its employees or agents.



     LL. In the event LESSOR shall default in the performance of any of its obligations hereunder,
and such default shall continue for 30 days after written notice thereof from LESSEE, or longer if
the default cannot reasonably be cured in 30 days, and LESSOR commences to cure the default within
the 30-day period but then fails to diligently proceed with a cure (or, in the event of an
emergency, such shorter period as may be reasonable under the circumstances), then LESSEE shall
have the right to perform such work or cure such default, and LESSOR shall promptly reimburse
LESSEE for reasonable and necessary costs and expenses paid by LESSEE to any third party to cure
such default.



     MM. LESSOR agrees to carry out its maintenance obligations under this lease in a good and
workerlike manner.

AMENDMENT TO LEASE # 1




     In connection with a lease currently in effect between the parties at 10-J and 10-K Gill
Street Woburn, Massachusetts, executed on January 21, 2003 and terminating March 30, 2008 and in
consideration of the mutual benefits to be derived herefrom, Cummings Properties, LLC, LESSOR, and
BioTrove, Inc., LESSEE, hereby agree, effective January 24, 2003, to amend said lease as follows:




	1.	 	The location of the leased premises is hereby changed from 10-J and 10-K Gill Street to 12 Gill
Street, Suite 4000, Woburn, Massachusetts. As a result of this relocation, the size of the leased
premises is hereby increased to a new total of approximately 22,459 square feet (including 12%
common area), as further shown on the mutually agreed upon plan and specifications dated January
24, 2003 attached hereto.
	 
	2.	 	Paragraph H of the Rider to Lease are hereby deleted and of no further force or effect, and
LESSOR represents and warrants that the leased premises are not currently occupied by any other
party and that no other party has a claim to possession of the leased premises or any portion
thereof.
	 
	3.	 	Paragraph O of the Rider to Lease is hereby deleted and replaced by the following. LESSEE shall
pay LESSOR $313,787.25 in rent upon LESSEE’s execution of this amendment, which payment shall be
applied to the first seven months of the lease term.
	 
	4.	 	Paragraph X of the Rider to Lease is hereby deleted and replaced by the following. LESSOR shall
provide LESSEE with certification in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to LESSEE that any
used laboratory equipment that is incorporated into LESSOR’s work shall be clean of contamination.
	 
	5.	 	The mutually agreed upon plan and specifications attached hereto, dated January 24, 2003, shall
be substituted for the plan and specifications dated January 14, 2003 attached to the lease and
referred to in Paragraph J of the Rider to Lease. All references to “LESSOR’s work” in the Rider to
Lease and this amendment shall refer to the attached plan and specifications dated January 24,
2003.
	 
	6.	 	LESSOR, at no further cost to LESSEE, shall provide up to 32 Trendway workstations for LESSEE’s
use at the leased premises during the term of this lease, which shall be available for installation
at the leased premises by LESSEE on or before the completion of LESSOR’s work. LESSEE shall be
responsible for reimbursing LESSOR its costs and expenses for disassembling said workstations from
their current location, and then LESSEE shall be responsible for the set-up, reinstallation and
wiring of said workstations. LESSOR shall store the workstations at no charge to LESSEE during
LESSOR’s work. LESSEE acknowledges that said workstations are now in good condition and repair, and
LESSEE agrees to return said workstations to LESSOR in the same condition, reasonable wear and tear
(only) excepted, upon vacating the leased premises.
	 
	7.	 	The parties acknowledge and agree that, as of the execution
of this amendment, not all of the
perimeter walls of the leased premises have been built. Accordingly, after completion of the
modifications provided for herein, LESSOR shall carefully measure the entire leased premises, and
if the size including common area does not equal the total number of square feet set forth in
Section 1 of this amendment, LESSOR shall notify LESSEE in writing of the actual revised square
footage, and said actual square footage shall be substituted for the figure in this amendment.
	 
	8.	 	Notwithstanding Section 14 of the lease, the control of snow and ice on all walkways, steps and
loading areas serving the leased premises and all other areas not readily accessible to plows shall
be the sole responsibility of LESSOR. In all other respects, Section 14 shall remain unchanged.
	 
	9.	 	Notwithstanding Section 24 of the lease, a shared dumpster or compactor shall be provided by
LESSOR, and LESSEE shall pay the disposal firm or LESSOR, as applicable, LESSEE’s proportionate
share of any costs associated therewith.
	 
	10.	 	LESSOR hereby represents to LESSEE that the floor load capacity of the leased premises,
including without limitation the deflection and vibration of the floor itself, is sufficient to
accommodate the equipment set forth in the attached Exhibit A, in mutually agreed upon locations.
In the event the floor load capacity is not sufficient, in the reasonable judgment of LESSEE’s
engineer, LESSOR shall remediate the problem in order to reasonably accommodate said equipment at
LESSOR’s expense. In the event LESSEE desires to install additional equipment in the future for
which the floor load capacity is not sufficient then LESSOR at LESSEE’s expense shall reinforce the

LEASE EXTENSION




     In connection with a lease currently in effect between the parties at 12 Gill Street, Suite 4000,
Woburn, Massachusetts, fully executed on January 21, 2003 and terminating March 30, 2008, and in
consideration of the mutual benefits to be derived herefrom, Cummings Properties, LLC, LESSOR, and
BioTrove, Inc., LESSEE, hereby agree, effective April 1, 2004, to amend said lease as follows:




	 	1.	 	The lease is hereby extended for an additional term of one (1) year ending at noon on March 30,
2009.
	 
	 	2.	 	Base rent is hereby changed to six hundred fifty one thousand four hundred nine (651,409)
dollars per year or $54,284.08 per month.
	 
	 	3.	 	The base month from which to determine the amount of each annual increase in the “Cost of
Living” shall be November 2003, which figure shall be compared with the figure for November 2004,
and each November thereafter to determine the percentage increase (if any) in the base rent to be
paid during the following calendar year.
	 
	 	[4.	 	THIS PARAGRAPH DOES NOT APPLY.]
	 
	 	5.	 	The lease, including all terms, conditions, escalations, etc. shall be automatically extended
for additional successive periods of five (5) years each unless LESSOR or LESSEE shall serve
written notice, either party to the other, of either party’s desire not to so extend the lease. The
time for serving such written notice shall be not more than twelve months or less than six months
prior to the expiration of the then current lease period. Time is of the essence.
	 
	 	6.	 	To the extent any inconsistency exists between this Lease Extension and the lease, including any
prior amendments, the conditions contained herein shall control and supersede any earlier
provisions. Neither the submission of this Lease Extension, nor the prospective acceptance of any
increase in the security deposit, shall constitute a reservation of or option for the leased
premises, it being expressly understood and agreed that this Lease Extension shall not bind either
party in any manner whatsoever until it has been executed by both parties.
	 
	 	7.	 	The size of the leased premises is hereby increased by approximately 10,026 square feet
(including 0.3% common area), with the addition of 10-R Gill Street as shown on the mutually agreed
upon plan attached hereto (the “Attached Plan”). With this addition, the leased premises shall
consist of approximately 22,585 square feet (including 12% common area) at 12 Gill Street and
approximately 10,026 square feet (including 0.3% common area) at 10-R Gill Street.
	 
	 	8.	 	LESSEE agrees to take possession of 10-R Gill Street in “as is” condition, except LESSOR, at
LESSOR’s cost, shall construct a demising wall for 10-R Gill Street, construct a loading dock as
shown on the Attached Plan, and provide a 120V/208V, 200 AMP electrical service before or about the
completion date of any alterations to be completed pursuant to the New Plan as defined in Section
12 below.
	 
	 	9.	 	* The parties acknowledge and agree that, as of the execution of this Lease Extension, not all
of the perimeter walls of 10-R Gill Street have been built. Accordingly, upon completion of the
modifications provided for herein, LESSOR shall carefully measure 10-R Gill Street, and if the size
including common area does not equal the number of square feet set forth above, LESSOR shall notify
LESSEE in writing of the actual revised square footage and the corresponding increase or decrease
in rent, based on the same rate per square foot for 10-R Gill Street used in this Lease Extension,
and said actual square footage and adjusted rent shall be substituted for the figures herein.
	 
	 	10.	 	LESSOR, if requested to do so by LESSEE and at LESSEE’s sole expense, shall make alterations
necessitated by LESSEE’s use of 10-R Gill Street according to a plan to be mutually agreed upon by
both parties (the “New Plan”). Any such alterations shall be considered “non-building standard” for
maintenance purposes pursuant to Section 10 of the lease. At LESSEE’s request, up to half of the
charges for all alterations agreed to in advance and completed by LESSOR or LESSOR’s agents may be
incorporated into the lease by separate amendment to be attached hereto, amortized with interest at
nine percent per annum, and then paid for by LESSEE in the same manner as base rent which shall
otherwise be due.






 









 






LEASE EXTENSION

(Continued)





	 	11.	 	If LESSOR should make any alterations and amortize the cost thereof under the preceding
paragraph, then LESSEE shall provide LESSOR with additional security, which may include a letter of
credit, in an amount and form satisfactory to LESSOR and LESSOR’s counsel to ensure payment of all
charges to be amortized.
	 
	 	12.	 	On or before the commencement date of a lease between LESSOR and a third party for all or part
of the vacant space that is contiguous to 10-R Gill Street, LESSOR shall construct, at a charge to
LESSEE of $14,000, the hallway shown as the hatched area on the Attached Plan. Prior to that date,
LESSEE may use the additional egress for emergency purposes (only).
	 
	 	13.	 	Upon substantial completion of said hallway, the size of the leased premises shall be increased
by approximately 385 square feet (including 0.3% common area), and the annual base rent shall be
increased by $2,887.50.
	 
	 	14.	 	LESSOR, at its cost, may at any time, subject to LESSEE’s approval, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, relocate the additional egress and the hallway to a different
location at 10 Gill Street, and the size of the leased premises and annual base rent shall be
adjusted accordingly.
	 
	 	15.	 	LESSOR, at no further cost to LESSEE, shall make available an additional 35 used Trendway
workstations for LESSEE’s use at the leased premises. LESSEE shall be responsible for the removal
and disassembly of said workstations from their current location and for the reinstallation and
wiring of said workstations at the leased premises. LESSEE acknowledges that said workstations are
now in good condition and repair, and LESSEE agrees to return said workstations to LESSOR in the
same condition, reasonable wear and tear (only) excepted upon vacating the leased premises.
	 
	 	16.	 	Nothing in this Lease Extension is intended to affect the $2,086.50 per month discount in
Paragraph I of the Rider to Lease, provided LESSEE is not in default of the lease or in arrears of
any rent or invoice payments.
	 
	 	17.	 	LESSEE shall pay LESSOR $11,000 to upgrade the existing electrical service in place from 200
AMPs to 600 AMPs on or before the completion date of the New Plan.




All other terms, conditions and covenants of the lease shall continue to apply. In Witness Whereof,
LESSOR and LESSEE have hereunto set their hands and common seals this 3rd day of March, 2004.

AMENDMENT
TO LEASE # 2




     In
connection with a lease currently in effect between the parties at 12 Gill Street, Suite
4000 and 10-R Gill Street, Woburn, Massachusetts, fully executed on January 21, 2003 and terminating
March 30, 2009, and in consideration of the mutual benefits to be derived herefrom, Cummings
Properties, LLC, LESSOR, and BioTrove, Inc., LESSEE, hereby agree, effective June 1, 2004, to amend
said lease as follows:




	1.	 	Base rent is hereby changed to six hundred fifty nine thousand two hundred seventy three (659,273) dollars per year or $54,939.41 per month.
	 
	2.	 	The base month from which to determine the amount of each annual increase in the “Cost of
Living” shall be November 2003, which figure shall be compared with the figure for November 2004,
and each November thereafter to determine the percentage increase (if any) in the base rent to be
paid during the following calendar year.

	 
	[3.	 	THIS PARAGRAPH DOES NOT APPLY.]

	 
	4.	 	The size of the leased premises at 10-R Gill Street (“10-R”) is hereby increased by
approximately 322 square feet (including .3% common area), from approximately 10,026 square feet
(including .3% common area), to a new total of approximately 10,348 square feet (including .3%
common area) with the addition of the cross-hatched area and a pro-rata share of the common
electric room and shared vestibule shown on the mutually agreed upon plan attached hereto (the “New
Plan” referred to in Section 10 of the Lease Extension dated March 3, 2004 (“the March
Extension”)). The leased premises shall now consist of approximately 22,585 square feet (including
12% common area) at 12 Gill Street, Suite 4000 and approximately 10,348 square feet (including 0.3%
common area) at 10-R. Section 13 of the March Extension shall continue to apply.
	 
	5.	 	LESSOR, at LESSOR’s cost, shall modify 10-R (only) according to the New Plan before or about 60
days following full execution of this amendment.
	 
	6.	 	If for any reason other than delay requested or caused by LESSEE (which shall include without
limitation any additions and/or changes requested by LESSEE to the
scope of LESSOR’s work, any
delay in LESSEE providing information to LESSOR for any permits or plans, and/or any interference
by LESSEE or LESSEE’s contractor with LESSOR’s work), LESSOR does not substantially complete,
except for punch list items, the modifications shown on the New Plan as provided in Section 5
above, then LESSEE shall be entitled to a rent abatement of $201.25 per month, to be apportioned
for any partial month, from June 1, 2004 until LESSOR substantially completes its work, but in no
case beyond August 31, 2004. This abatement of rent shall be
LESSEE’s sole remedy for any delay by
LESSOR in completing its work.
	 
	7.	 	Notwithstanding Section 10 of the March Extension, the parties acknowledge and agree that
charges totaling $26,340, comprised of the $14,000 and $11,000 charges referred to in Sections 12
and 17 of the March extension and a $1,340 charge for installation of two exterior windows, as
shown on the New Plan, have been amortized without interest and incorporated into the rent provided
for in Section 1 above.
	 
	8.	 	The parties acknowledge and agree that, as of the execution of this amendment, not all of the
perimeter walls of 10-R as increased herein have been built. Accordingly, upon completion of the
modifications provided for herein, LESSOR shall carefully measure 10-R, and if the size including
common area does not equal the number of square feet set forth above, LESSOR shall notify LESSEE in
writing of the actual revised square footage and the corresponding increase or decrease in rent,
based on the same rate per square foot used for 10-R in this amendment, and said actual square
footage and adjusted rent shall be substituted for the figures herein.
	 
	9.	 	LESSOR, if requested to do so by LESSEE, and at LESSEE’s sole expense, shall install one handicap
ramp, in accordance with LESSOR’s building standard specifications, to serve 10-R and the adjoining
premises. LESSOR agrees there shall be no rent increase resulting
from LESSEE’s non-exclusive use
of the outside area for said ramp.







 








 











AMENDMENT TO LEASE #2

(Continued)





	10.	 	Paragraph CC of the Rider to Lease is hereby deleted and the following shall now apply.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1 and 2 above, annual base rent during the option terms
shall be recalculated at LESSOR’s published annual rental rate less two dollars per square foot as
of the commencement of the applicable option term for similar space, but shall in no case be less
than the annual base rent, plus all “Cost of Living” adjustments, that would otherwise be in effect
as of the commencement of the applicable option term. The base month from which to determine the
amount of each “Cost of Living” adjustment during the first option term shall then be changed to
January 2009, the “comparison” month shall be changed to November 2009, and the first adjustment
during the first option term shall take place with the rent due on January 1, 2010. The base month
from which to determine the amount of each “Cost of Living” adjustment during the second option
term shall be changed to January 2012, the “comparison” month shall be changed to November 2012,
and the first adjustment during the second option term shall take place with the rent due on
January 1, 2013. Section 1 of the lease shall continue to apply in all other respects during the
option terms.
	 
	11.	 	Section 5 of the March Extension is hereby deleted and of no further force or effect.
	 
	12.	 	The provisions of Paragraphs W and Z of the Rider to Lease shall not only apply prior to the
termination of the lease, but also prior to LESSEE’s relocation from and/or relinquishment of all
or any portion of the leased premises. Time is of the essence.
	 
	13.	 	Section 8 of Amendment to Lease #1 is hereby deleted and the following shall now apply.
Notwithstanding Section 14 of the lease, the control of snow and ice on all walkways, steps,
loading areas and all other areas not readily accessible to plows serving 12 Gill Street (only)
shall be the sole responsibility of LESSOR. In all other respects, said Section 14 shall remain
unchanged.
	 
	14.	 	Section 9 of Amendment to Lease #1 is hereby deleted and the following shall now apply.
Notwithstanding Section 24 of the lease, a shared dumpster or compactor shall be provided by LESSOR
at 12 Gill Street (only), and LESSEE shall pay the disposal firm or LESSOR, as applicable, LESSEE’s
proportionate share of any costs associated therewith. In all other respects, said Section 24 shall
remain unchanged.
	 
	15.	 	Prior to the lease termination or any future relocation to another facility of LESSOR (only),
LESSEE may remove telephone equipment supplied and installed by LESSEE, provided LESSEE has
satisfactorily complied with all other conditions of this lease. LESSEE must repair any damage
resulting from such removal, restore the leased premises to their condition prior to the
installation of said equipment and remove or label, in accordance with all applicable building and
electrical codes, all wiring and cabling used by LESSEE. LESSEE must complete all such removal,
repair, restoration and other work prior to the termination or relocation date. Time is of the
essence.





     This amendment shall not bind either party in any manner until it has been executed by both
parties. All other terms, conditions and covenants of the lease shall continue to apply, and to the
extent any inconsistency exists between this amendment and the lease, including any prior
amendments, the conditions herein shall control and supersede any earlier provisions.

LEASE EXTENSION

(continued)





	15.	 	Provided LESSEE is not then in arrears of any rent or invoice payments or otherwise in
default of the lease beyond any applicable grace or cure period, LESSEE shall have a one-time
option to cancel the lease for any reason or no reason at all, effective March 30, 2010, by
serving LESSOR with written notice to that effect on or before June 30, 2009, along with a
simultaneous payment of $77,442 as a lease termination fee. LESSEE shall also remain
responsible for all damages to the premises in accordance with the lease and for rent and all
other charges due under the lease, including without limitation utility charges and real estate
tax increases, through March 30, 2010. Time is of the essence.






	16.	 	Provided LESSEE has not exercised the cancellation option provided for in Section 15 above,
LESSEE shall have a one-time option to relinquish Suite 4000, Suite 10-P or Suite 10-R
effective March 30, 2010, by serving LESSOR with written notice to that effect on or before
June 30, 2009. LESSEE’s notice to relinquish shall only be effective if LESSEE is not then in
arrears of any rent or invoice payments or otherwise in default of the lease in any case
beyond any applicable grace or cure period and if said notice is submitted to LESSOR along with
simultaneous payment of the applicable relinquishment fee. The relinquishment fee for Suite
4000 shall be $45,170, the relinquishment fee for Suite 10-P shall be $10,720 and the
relinquishment fee for Suite 10-R shall be $21,552. In the event LESSEE elects to relinquish
Suite 4000, annual base rent shall then be reduced by $451,700 as of March 30, 2010, and any
extended occupancy of Suite 4000 beyond March 30, 2010 shall be governed by Section 22 of the
lease. LESSEE shall also remain responsible for all damages to Suite 4000 in accordance with
the lease and for rent and all other charges due under the lease, including without limitation
real estate tax increases, through March 30, 2010. In the event LESSEE elects to relinquish
Suite 10-P, annual base rent shall then be reduced by $107,200 as of March 30, 2010, and any
extended occupancy of Suite 10-P beyond March 30, 2010 shall be governed by Section 22 of the
lease. LESSEE shall also remain responsible for all damages to Suite 10-P in accordance with
the lease and for rent and all other charges due under the lease, including without limitation
real estate tax increases, through March 30, 2010. In the event LESSEE elects to relinquish
Suite 10-R, annual base rent shall then be reduced by $215,520 as of March 30, 2010, and any
extended occupancy of Suite 10-R beyond March 30, 2010 shall be governed by Section 22 of the
lease. LESSEE shall also remain responsible for all damages to Suite 10-R in accordance with
the lease and for rent and all other charges due under the lease, including without limitation
real estate tax increases, through March 30, 2010. Time is of the essence.






	17.	 	From July 1, 2008 to March 30, 2011 (only), provided LESSEE is not then in arrears of any
rent or invoice payments or otherwise in default of the lease in any case, beyond any
applicable grace or cure period, LESSEE shall have the one-time right of first lease of
approximately 18,311 square feet (including 12% common area) of additional space at 12 Gill
Street, Suite 3000, and the one-time right of first lease of approximately 14,844 square feet
(including 12% common area) at 12 Gill Street, Suite 4700, at LESSOR’s then-current published
rental rate less $1.50 per square foot for said spaces, as each becomes available for lease
directly from LESSOR, subject to the right of the current lessees (if any) to extend or
otherwise renegotiate their leases. LESSEE shall have three business days from receipt of
notice from LESSOR of said availability to execute LESSOR’s then-current standard form lease
or amendment to lease for said additional space(s). If LESSOR fails to notify LESSEE of the
availability of either space and leases it to others, and if LESSEE notifies LESSOR of its
desire to lease said space and executes LESSOR’s then-current standard form lease or amendment
to lease for said space, LESSOR shall then have 60 days to relocate the other party. If
LESSOR fails to relocate the other party within said 60 days and to execute the new lease or
amendment to lease with LESSEE, then LESSEE may elect, by serving LESSOR written notice within
30 days after expiration of the 60-day relocation period, to occupy a similar amount of
additional space in one of LESSOR’s buildings at no charge until such time as LESSOR delivers
possession of the applicable space. This shall be LESSEE’s exclusive remedy for any failure
by LESSOR to deliver possession of Suite 3000 and/or Suite 4700 or any breach by LESSOR of the
provisions of this paragraph. Time is of the essence.






	18.	 	Provided LESSEE has not exercised the cancellation option provided for in Section 15 above,
and provided LESSEE is not then in arrears of any rent or invoice payments or otherwise in
default of the lease in any case, beyond any applicable grace or cure period, LESSEE shall
have a one-time option to extend the lease, including all terms and escalations therein, for
one additional term of one year (the “option term”) by serving LESSOR with written notice of
its desire to so extend the lease. The time for serving such written notice shall be not more
than 12 months or less than nine months prior to the expiration of the then-current lease
term. Additionally, notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3 and 10 above, annual base
rent during the option term shall be recalculated at LESSOR’s published

annual rental rate as of the commencement of the option term for similar space but shall
in no case be less than the annual base rent, plus all “Cost of Living” adjustments, that
would otherwise be in effect as of the commencement of the option term. The base month
from which to determine the amount of each “Cost of Living” adjustment during the option
term shall then be changed to January 2011, the “comparison” month shall be changed to
November 2011, and the first adjustment during the option term shall take place with the
rent due on January 1, 2012. Section 1 of the lease shall continue to apply in all other
respects during the option term. Time is of the essence.




	19.	 	Paragraph II of the Rider to Lease is hereby deleted and the following shall now apply.
During the first nine months after full execution of this lease extension (only), provided
LESSEE is not then in arrears of any rent or invoice payments or otherwise in default of
the lease beyond any applicable grace or cure period, LESSEE may install, at LESSEE’s sole
expense, an illuminated exterior sign on 10 and/or 12 Gill Street, in a location to be
designated by LESSOR and reasonably acceptable to LESSEE and in compliance with LESSOR’s
design and construction standards and all ordinances, bylaws, and state and local building
codes. LESSEE shall obtain all necessary permits and LESSOR’s written consent as to size,
graphics, construction and the like. If applicable, LESSEE shall, at LESSEE’s sole expense,
remove any existing signage and patch and finish any holes prior to sign installation.
Trees, shrubs, landscaping and architectural elements may be removed or relocated, also at
LESSEE’s sole expense, with prior written approval of LESSOR, said approval not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.






	20.	 	Following installation, LESSEE shall maintain said sign(s) in good working order and
condition, and if LESSEE fails to do so, LESSOR may elect to have said sign(s) repaired or
removed from the building(s) at LESSEE’s sole expense. In addition, on or before the
expiration or earlier termination of the lease, LESSEE shall remove, if requested by
LESSOR, said sign(s) and restore the premises in accordance with LESSOR’s building and
construction standards. Time is of the essence.




This extension shall not bind any party in any manner whatsoever until it has been executed by all
parties. All other terms of the lease *shall continue to apply, and to the extent any inconsistency
exists between this extension and the lease, including any prior amendments, the terms herein shall
control and supersede any earlier provisions. In witness whereof, LESSOR and LESSEE, intending to
be legally bound, have caused this extension to be executed this
25th day
of June, 2008.      *as amended
